First ever Powerlifting gold for

 

Amazing result for Mariana d'Andrea who 5 years ago in Rio failed all her attempts.

[Prashanth 179]

First ever TT medal for  

Bhavina Patel gets Silver in TT class 4

[Gianlu33 4,750]

We won a medal in judo too

Finally medalled today at the games, ended up winning 3 at the end of the day. 

 

Focus now shifts to tomorrow with expectations between 4-7 medals with at least 2 golds. 

 

All 5 javelin throwers tomorrow are capable of medalling and anything less than 2 golds and 4 medals will be a major disappointment. F46 javelin is  also the best chance for a clean sweep .

Archery medal events are happening yet no stream. So shooting and archery won't be covered? 

[vinipereira 3,421]

From 2008 to 2016 Brazil had only 3 female individual Paralympic champions. And now we have 3 in a single day

All I know is that “partial coverage” was planned. I have no clue what’s going on with either of those.

Meanwhile, all is well in the world of para-dressage.

 

Even though they were beatable since Rio, the British Paralympic record remains unbeaten thanks to the masterful effort of certain Sarah LEITCH in underscoring Dutch riders.

 

No, this is not sensationalism. Excluding her input, the Dutch would have scored 1.491% more (230.740), which would easily be enough for the gold medal...

And more to the fact, this was just the most blatant robbery I have ever seen.

 

Sophie Wells somehow improved on her previous score despite a large mistake in counter canter, and near-lateral walk. "Disgusting", as some would say.

It seems like she underscored every other team and overscored . How is this even allowed?
